Question
can you tell me if these are right? 8 1/4lb=132oz.,1/2lb=8oz.,4 1/4lb=68oz.,5T=400lb.,2lb=4,000oz.,3/4lb=12oz.,3 1/4T=6500lb.If not right please explain thanks

Answer
1T = 2,000lbs

1 lb = 16oz.

8 1/4lb = 132oz., correct

1/2lb = 8oz., correct

4 1/4lb = 68oz., correct

5T = 400lb, if you meant .2T, then the answer is 400lb, but if you meant 5T, then the answer is 10,000lbs

2lb = 4,000 oz., on this one, if you meant 250lbs, then 4000oz would be correct, but if you meant just 2lbs, then
the answer is 32oz.

3/4lb = 12oz., correct

3 1/4T = 6500lb, correct
